ABOUT

The Rosa Flower Power Gold, commonly known as a patio rose, is a striking plant with appealing aesthetic characteristics. It showcases a vibrant display of golden yellow flowers that radiate with a warm, sunny hue, inviting admiration for their bright and cheerful appearance. The blossoms are semi-double, meaning they have a generous number of petals, which gives them a lush, full appearance without being overly dense or heavy. Each flower comprises a set of petals arranged in a somewhat loose, open fashion, allowing glimpses of the interior of the bloom. This arrangement gives the flowers a slightly ruffled look, lending them a casual yet elegant charm. The petals may show slight variations in color intensity, with some edges possibly exhibiting a lighter touch of yellow, enhancing the visual depth and interest of the blooms. The foliage of the patio rose is a glossy, rich green color, providing a perfect backdrop that contrasts with and highlights the bold yellow of the flowers. The leaves have a classic rose leaf appearance – oval-shaped with a pointed tip and a slightly serrated edge, typically growing in alternate arrangements along the stems. The plant forms a bushy, well-branched habit, giving rise to multiple clusters of blooms throughout its blooming season, creating a continuous and abundant floral display. The overall impression of the Rosa Flower Power Gold is one of vibrancy and liveliness. With its golden blooms and verdant foliage, it is a popular choice for gardeners looking to add a splash of brightness and a touch of elegance to their outdoor spaces.

Toxicity
- To humans
  Generally, the Rose is not considered toxic to humans. However, eating large quantities of rose petals, leaves, or hips may lead to stomach discomfort or irritation due to the plant's fibrous nature and natural compounds. The risk of serious poisoning is low, but care should be taken to avoid ingesting significant amounts, particularly in individuals with sensitive systems or those prone to allergies.
- To pets
  Roses, including the Rose Flower Power Gold, are generally considered non-toxic to pets. However, the thorns can cause injuries if a pet tries to chew on the stems. If a pet consumes a small amount, it's unlikely to cause any serious issues beyond mild gastrointestinal upset. Large quantities, however, may pose a risk of intestinal blockage or more significant stomach irritation. Always monitor pets around plants and discourage them from chewing on any roses to prevent potential problems.

As needed

Pruning

Water
The Patio Rose should be watered deeply, ensuring moisture reaches the roots, generally early in the morning to allow foliage to dry out during the day. During the growing season, water it once a week with about 2 gallons per plant, except in extremely hot or windy conditions, when it may require more frequent watering. In the winter, reduce watering but don't allow the soil to completely dry out. Avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal diseases, and ensure that the soil has proper drainage to prevent root rot.
Light
Patio Roses thrive in areas where they can receive full sunlight for at least six hours a day. The best spot for these plants is in an open area away from large trees or structures that can create significant shade. Ensure the location is not subjected to strong winds which can damage the flowers and foliage of the rose.
Temperature
Patio Roses perform well in temperatures ranging from about 70°F to 90°F and can survive winter temperatures down to around 20°F. It's essential to protect the plant from extreme cold by providing mulch or other insulation at its base. Ideal growth occurs when the temperature is moderate, between 65°F and 75°F.
Pruning
Patio Roses benefit from pruning to remove dead or diseased wood, promote air circulation, shape the plant, and encourage new growth leading to more blooms. Pruning should be done in early spring, after the last frost but before active growth begins. Thin out crowded areas, cutting back canes by about one-third to one-half, always cutting at a 45-degree angle just above outward-facing buds.
Cleaning
As needed
Soil
Roses prefer a rich, loamy soil with good drainage and a pH between 6.0 and 6.5. A mix of two-thirds garden soil and one-third well-rotted compost or manure is ideal for ensuring healthy growth.
Repotting
Patio roses like Rosa 'Flower Power Gold' generally need repotting every two to three years to refresh the soil and provide space for root growth.
Humidity & Misting
Roses thrive in moderate humidity conditions; aim for a level between 40-60% for optimal growth without promoting fungal diseases.
Suitable locations
- Indoor
  Place in bright spot, water regularly, and ensure good air circulation for indoor rose growth.
- Outdoor
  Use fertile, well-draining soil; full or partial sun; and water deeply but infrequently.
- Hardiness zone
  5-9 USDA
Life cycle
The Rosa 'Flower Power Gold' starts its life as a dormant bare-root plant or from a grafted nursery pot. After planting, the rose enters a vegetative stage where it develops a strong root system and vigorous foliage growth. The next stage is the flowering period, where numerous buttery-yellow flowers bloom in clusters, showcasing its color from late spring to frost if properly cared for. As the season progresses, spent flowers may form hips if not deadheaded, signaling the plant's reproductive stage. As temperatures drop, the rose enters a period of dormancy in colder climates, preparing to survive the winter. Finally, during spring, the cycle begins anew with fresh growth and another season of vibrant blooms.
Propogation
- Propogation time
  Spring-Early Summer
- For the Rosa Flower Power Gold 'Fryneon', a popular type of Patio Rose, the most common method of propagation is through semi-hardwood cuttings. This is typically done in late summer or early autumn when the stems of the current season's growth have started to mature but are not fully hardened. A cutting between 6 to 8 inches long is selected, ideally with several sets of leaves, and the lower leaves are removed. The base of the cutting is dipped into a rooting hormone to enhance root development and then planted in a pot filled with a mixture of potting soil and perlite or sand to ensure good drainage. The pot is kept in a warm area with indirect light and the soil is kept moist. Roots usually develop within several weeks, after which the new rose plant can gradually be hardened off before being transplanted outdoors.
